Objective: To estimate the prevalence of diabetes due to diseases of the exocrine pancreas (DEP) using data of the multicentre diabetes patient follow-up registry. Moreover, we aimed at comparing individuals with diabetes due to DEP to individuals with type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

Methods: Individuals with DEP, type 1 or type 2 diabetes ≥18 years of age were studied. We aggregated the most recent treatment year per patient and used propensity scores to match diabetes due to DEP to type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Matching was conducted one-to-one with sex, age, diabetes duration, migration background and the German index of socioeconomic deprivation as covariates.

Results: We identified 7,093 (1.6%) individuals with diabetes due to DEP. In the matched cohort DEP-type 1 diabetes we observed a similar daily insulin dose (0.62 IU/kg (95% confidence interval:0.60-0.63), 0.60 IU/kg (0.58-0.62)) and significant differences regarding microvascular (41.0% (39.7-42.2), 45.3% (44.0-46.6)), and macrovascular disease (16.6% (15.7-17.6), 14.7% (13.8-15.6)). HbA1c (8.2% (8.1-8.3), 7.9% (7.8-8.0)), daily insulin dose (0.60 IU/kg (0.58-0.62), 0.56 IU/kg (0.54-0.58)) and event rates of severe hypoglycemia (23.9 events/100 PY (21.4-26.8), (9.5 events/100 PY (8.0-11.2)) were significantly higher in individuals with diabetes due to DEP compared to type 2 diabetes.

Conclusions: Using registry data, rare diabetes types such as diabetes due to DEP can be studied with a significant sample size. Our study identified differences and similarities between adult individuals with DEP related diabetes and type 1 or type 2 diabetes.

Lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) are rare inherited metabolic disorders characterized by defects in the function of specific enzymes responsible for breaking down substrates within cellular organelles (lysosomes) essential for the processing of macromolecules. Undigested substrate accumulates within lysosomes, leading to cellular dysfunction, tissue damage, and clinical manifestations. Clinical features vary depending on the degree and type of enzyme deficiency, the type and extent of substrate accumulated, and the tissues affected.

Male infertility is a common complication of diabetes. Diabetes leads to the decrease of zinc (Zn) content, which is a necessary trace element to maintain the normal structure and function of reproductive organs and spermatogenesis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of metformin combined with zinc on testis and sperm in diabetic mice.

Progress report on multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1.

Fam Cancer

January 2025

Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv, Israel.

Multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by a germline pathogenic variant in the MEN1 tumor suppressor gene. Patients with MEN1 have a high risk for primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) with a penetrance of nearly 100%, pituitary adenomas (PitAd) in 40% of patients, and neuroendocrine neoplasms (NEN) of the pancreas (40% of patients), duodenum, lung, and thymus. Increased MEN1-related mortality is mainly related to duodenal-pancreatic and thymic NEN.
